Configuring a message processing server

For high volumes of inbound messages, you can improve server efficiency by moving inbound message processing to a separate application server or server cluster.

Procedure

  1. Deploy a separate application EAR file on the message processing server or server cluster.
  2. On the message processing application server or server cluster, use the donotrun parameter in the cron task framework to control which servers the cron task runs on.
  3. Optional: Configure message-driven beans to pull data from the inbound continuous queue. Do not enable message-driven beans for inbound processing within the server or server cluster that is dedicated for online users. You can run other background processing cron tasks on this server or server cluster.
  4. Optional: Grant user interface access to users who use of the data import feature.
